[0002] At present, artificial mussel culture devices are mostly cultured by ropes and wrapped cloth. In the process of mussel culture, mussels will attach to the culture ropes. When the mussels are mature, the mussels attached to the culture ropes need to be picked. At present, the picking method of mussels is usually to use a traction device to forcibly pull the culture rope through the through hole of the clamp plate, so as to pick down the mussels attached to the culture rope. However, due to the close attachment between the mussels and the rope, the pulling force is large, which causes great damage to the mussels, and even causes problems such as shell breakage and mussel meat compression.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] In order to further understand the features, technical means and specific purposes and functions achieved by the present application, the present application will be described in further detail below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the present application provides an automatic picking and cleaning device for mussel processing, which comprises a conveying device 1 and a cleaning device 2. The conveying device 1 comprises a first conveying belt 11, a moving platform 12 and a clamping assembly 13. The moving platform 12 has a plurality of platforms and is distributed along the path of the first conveying belt 11. The clamping assembly 13 is arranged on the moving platform 12 and is used to clamp a rope with mussels. The first conveying belt 11 is used to convey the clamping assembly 13 to the direction of the cleaning device 2. The top end of the first conveying belt 11 is provided with a heater 14, which is used to heat the rope passing through the first conveying belt 11. The conveying device 1 and the cleaning device 2 are further provided with a picking device 3. The picking device 3 is used to take off the heated mussels from the rope and send them into the cleaning device 2.

[0034] In artificial cultivation, mussels will attach to the cultivation ropes, so that when the mussels are picked up for harvesting, the ropes with mussels can be placed on the moving platform 12, then the rope is fixed on the moving platform 12 by the clamping assembly 13, and the rope is kept in a tight state, then the first conveying belt 11 starts to work, so that the rope is transported to the cleaning device 2 in succession, when the rope moves on the first conveying belt 11, the rope enters the inside of the heater 14 provided on the first conveying belt 11, so that the rope can be heated by the heater 14, so that the shell of the mussel can be softened, so that the mussel can be more easily taken off from the rope, then the rope moves out of the heater 14 and moves under the first conveying belt 11 under the drive of the first conveying belt 11, then the mussels on the rope are picked up by the picking device 3 provided between the conveying device 1 and the cleaning device 2, and because the mussels on the rope are heated, the picking device 3 can easily take the mussels off the rope, at the same time, the picked mussels fall into the cleaning device 2, so that the cleaning device 2 is below the conveying device 1, at the same time, when the picking device 3 picks up the mussels on the rope, a certain time is needed, so that when the picking device 3 picks up the mussels, the first conveying belt 11 stops moving, and the time of heating the rope in the heater 14 can be increased, so that the heater 14 has enough time to soften the shell of the mussel, so that the mussel can be quickly taken off from the rope; when the mussels on the rope are picked up, the first conveying belt 11 starts to move, so as to drive the rope with mussels to move to the head of the conveying device 1, so that the staff can take off the rope and replace it with a new rope with mussels, while the first conveying belt 11 moves the subsequent rope with mussels to the picking device 3 for picking up the mussels, so as to form a cycle, thereby improving the work efficiency; when the mussels picked from the rope fall into the cleaning device 2, the cleaning device 2 starts to clean the mussels and drives the mussels to move away from the conveying device 1, until the cleaned mussels are transported out of the cleaning device 2, so that a collection box or other device can be provided at the outlet of the cleaning device 2, so as to store the cleaned mussels.

[0035] Referring to Figure 3 As shown: the picking device 3 comprises a clamping ring 31, a first linear mechanism 32 and a second linear mechanism 33; the clamping ring 31 has two and is oppositely provided at the top end of the first linear mechanism 32; the first linear mechanism 32 is provided at the top end of the second linear mechanism 33 and is used to control the clamping ring 31 to approach or move away from the rope; the second linear mechanism 33 is at the bottom end of the first conveying belt 11 and is used to control the first linear mechanism 32 to move horizontally.

[0036] The first linear mechanism 32 can adopt a telescopic air cylinder, an electric cylinder or other linear equipment, so as to drive the clamping ring 31 to move close to or away from the rope in the vertical direction. When the first conveying belt 11 moves the rope with mussels to the lower side of the first conveying belt 11, the first linear mechanism 32 with the clamping ring 31 is just at one end of the rope, and then the first linear mechanism 32 starts to drive the clamping ring 31 to move upward, so as to gradually move close to the rope. While the clamping ring 31 moves upward in the vertical direction, the two clamping rings 31 can move close to each other, so that when the first linear mechanism 32 moves the clamping ring 31 to a predetermined position, the two clamping rings 31 just clamp the rope inside. Then the second linear mechanism 33 starts to drive the first linear mechanism 32 to move to the other end of the rope, so that the clamping ring 31 can slide on the outer peripheral wall of the rope, so as to scrape the mussels attached to the rope. Since the rope is heated by the heater 14, the shells of the mussels on the rope become soft, so that the connection between the mussels and the rope is not tight, so that the mussels can be easily scraped from the rope. The mussels scraped from the rope directly fall into the cleaning device 2, and then the mussels are cleaned by the cleaning device 2. The second linear mechanism 33 can adopt a ball screw slide rail, a linear guide rail slide rail and a linear motor slide rail or other linear slide rails.

[0037] Referring to Figure 4 As shown: the picking device 3 further comprises a mounting box 34, a lifting table 35 and an abutting rod 36; the first linear mechanism 32 is inside the mounting box 34, and the telescopic end of the first linear mechanism 32 penetrates to the top end of the mounting box 34; the mounting box 34 is on the second linear mechanism 33; the lifting table 35 is above the mounting box 34 and is fixedly connected with the telescopic end of the first linear mechanism 32; the clamping ring 31 is slidably arranged on the lifting table 35; the abutting rod 36 is arranged at the top end of the mounting box 34, and the top end of the abutting rod 36 penetrates to the top end of the lifting table 35 and abuts with the clamping ring 31.

[0038] The first linear mechanism 32 is inside the mounting box 34, which can protect the first linear mechanism 32 to some extent, so as to avoid damage to the first linear mechanism 32 caused by falling mussels. The clamping ring 31 is slidingly arranged on the lifting platform 35, and the top end of the abutting rod 36 abuts against the clamping ring 31 after passing through the lifting platform 35. When the first linear mechanism 32 drives the lifting platform 35 to move downward, the clamping ring 31 abuts against the outer side wall of the abutting rod 36, and during the gradual downward movement, the two clamping rings 31 move away from each other, until the rope with mussels moves below the first conveying belt 11 and above the picking device 3, and then the first linear mechanism 32 drives the lifting platform 35 to move upward, so that the clamping ring 31 gradually approaches the rope. When the rope is between the two clamping rings 31, the two clamping rings 31 are completely separated from the abutting rod 36, so that the two clamping rings 31 can approach each other, so that the inner circumferential wall of the clamping ring 31 can abut against the outer circumferential wall of the rope. Then the second linear mechanism 33 starts to drive the clamping ring 31 to move to the other end of the rope, so as to scrape off the mussels attached to the rope. A first compression spring should be provided between each clamping ring 31 and the lifting platform 35, so that the two clamping rings 31 can approach each other after being separated from the abutting rod 36, so that the inner circumferential wall of the clamping ring 31 can tightly fit the outer circumferential wall of the rope, thereby scraping off the mussels from the rope when the clamping ring 31 moves on the rope.

[0039] Referring to Figure 5 As shown in the drawings, the bottom end of the clamping ring 31 is provided with a first inclined surface 311, and the top end of the abutting rod 36 is provided with a second inclined surface 361 abutting against the first inclined surface 311. When the clamping ring 31 moves vertically downward, the two clamping rings 31 move away from each other under the action of the first inclined surface 311 and the second inclined surface 361.

[0040] The top end of the abutting rod 36 is provided with two second inclined surfaces 361, respectively abutting against the first inclined surface 311 of one clamping ring 31. When the first linear mechanism 32 drives the lifting platform 35 to move vertically downward, the two clamping rings 31 move away from each other under the action of the first inclined surface 311 and the second inclined surface 361, and press the first compression spring. When the rope with mussels moves below the first conveying belt 11 and above the picking device 3, the first linear mechanism 32 drives the lifting platform 35 to move vertically upward, and the rope is between the two clamping rings 31. At this time, the clamping ring 31 starts to move upward along the second inclined surface 361 and approaches the other clamping ring 31 under the action of the first compression spring, until the inner circumferential wall of the clamping ring 31 abuts against the outer circumferential wall of the rope, so that the mussels on the rope can be scraped off under the drive of the second linear mechanism 33.

[0041] Referring to Figure 6 As shown in the figure: the clamping assembly 13 includes a connecting seat 131 and a locking ring 133; the moving platform 12 is also provided with a connecting assembly 15, which is in detachable fixed connection with the connecting seat 131; the connecting seat 131 has two and is respectively at both ends of the moving platform 12, and the inner side of the connecting seat 131 is slidably provided with two clamping claws 132; the locking ring 133 is sleeved on the outer side wall of the two clamping claws 132, and the inner peripheral wall of the locking ring 133 is in threaded connection with the outer peripheral wall of the clamping claw 132 through tapered threads.

[0042] The two connecting seats 131 are installed on the moving platform 12 through the connecting assembly 15, and since the connecting seat 131 is in detachable fixed connection with the connecting assembly 15, the connecting seat 131 can be quickly installed on the moving platform 12, and when the moving seat needs to be maintained and repaired due to damage, the moving seat can also be quickly detached from the moving platform 12 and replaced with a new one, thereby ensuring that the transport device 1 can be used normally; the inner side of the moving seat is slidably provided with two clamping claws 132, and the two clamping claws 132 are oppositely arranged, so that the two clamping claws 132 can approach or move away from each other; at this time, the outer side of the two clamping claws 132 is sleeved with the locking ring 133, and the inner peripheral wall of the locking ring 133 is in threaded connection with the outer peripheral wall of the clamping claw 132 through tapered threads; in this way, when the locking ring 133 is continuously tightened, the two clamping claws 132 can be driven to approach each other, and when the locking ring 133 is loosened, the two clamping claws 132 can move away from each other; in this way, after the rope with mussels is placed on the moving platform 12, the two ends of the rope can be respectively placed in the clamping claws 132 at both ends of the moving platform 12, and then the two locking rings 133 are respectively tightened, so that the corresponding two clamping claws 132 can be driven to approach each other, thereby clamping and fixing the rope; then the rope can move to the cleaning device 2 along with the first transport belt 11, until the mussels are picked up by the picking device 3; in order to ensure that the clamping claws 132 can stably clamp and fix the rope, teeth can be arranged on the inner side wall of the clamping claw 132, thereby ensuring that the rope can be stably clamped and fixed by the two clamping claws 132.

[0043] Referring to Figure 7 As shown in the figure: the clamping claw 132 and the connecting seat 131 are provided with an elastic assembly 134, which is used to drive the two clamping claws 132 to move away from each other.

[0044] When one end of the rope is placed between the two clamping jaws 132, the two clamping jaws 132 can be driven to approach each other by tightening the locking ring 133, so as to clamp and fix the rope, and when the two clamping jaws 132 approach each other, the elastic assembly 134 can be extruded, so that the elastic assembly 134 can continuously apply a pushing force to the clamping jaw 132, so as to ensure that the outer peripheral wall of the clamping jaw 132 and the inner peripheral wall of the locking ring 133 abut each other; after the mussels on the rope are picked, the rope is moved to the first end of the conveying device 1 by the first conveying device 1, at this time the staff can reversely rotate the locking ring 133, and under the action of the elastic assembly 134, the two clamping jaws 132 can be away from each other, so that the staff can take out the rope from the clamping jaw 132, and fix the new rope with mussels in the clamping jaw 132; the elastic assembly 134 can adopt elastic elements such as compression springs, gas springs or air springs, so as to stably drive the two clamping jaws 132 away from each other, so that the outer peripheral wall of the clamping jaw 132 and the inner peripheral wall of the locking ring 133 abut each other.

[0045] With reference to Figure 6 As shown in the figure: the connecting assembly 15 comprises a first fixed seat 151 and a second fixed seat 152; the first fixed seat 151 and the second fixed seat 152 are respectively arranged at both ends of the moving platform 12, and the first fixed seat 151 and the second fixed seat 152 are respectively connected with the corresponding moving seat in a sliding manner.

[0046] The first fixed seat 151 and the second fixed seat 152 are respectively arranged at both ends of the moving seat, and the moving seat has two and is connected with the first fixed seat 151 and the second fixed seat 152, and in order to enable the moving seat to be quickly installed on the first fixed seat 151 or the second fixed seat 152, a sliding rail can be arranged on the moving seat, and a sliding groove is arranged on the first fixed seat 151 and the second fixed seat 152, so that when the moving seat is installed, only the sliding rail on the moving seat needs to be inserted into the sliding groove of the first fixed seat 151 or the second fixed seat 152, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the moving seat.

[0047] With reference to Figure 8 As shown in the figure: one end of the moving platform 12 close to the second fixed seat 152 is provided with a vertical plate, and the second fixed seat 152 is connected with the moving platform 12 in a sliding manner; one end of the second fixed seat 152 close to the vertical plate is provided with a rotating ring 153, and the rotating ring 153 is connected with the second fixed seat 152 in a rotating manner; an adjusting screw rod 154 is fixed on the inner peripheral wall of the rotating ring 153, and the adjusting screw rod 154 passes through the vertical plate and is connected with the vertical plate in a threaded manner.

[0048] The second fixed seat 152 is in sliding connection with the moving platform 12, so that the second fixed seat 152 gradually approaches or moves away from the first fixed seat 151, so as to adapt to different lengths of the rope. When the rope with mussels is placed on the moving platform 12, and one end of the rope is clamped and fixed by the clamping claw 132 on the first fixed seat 151, the worker places the other end of the rope in the clamping claw 132 on the second fixed seat 152, and then tightens the corresponding locking ring 133, so that the other end of the rope is also clamped and fixed by the clamping claw 132. Then the adjusting screw 154 can be rotated. Since the adjusting screw 154 is in threaded connection with the vertical plate, the adjusting screw 154 will move horizontally. At this time, the adjusting screw 154 is fixedly connected with the rotating ring 153, and the rotating ring 153 is in rotating connection with the second fixed seat 152. Therefore, when the adjusting screw 154 moves horizontally, the second fixed seat 152 will move synchronously with the adjusting screw 154, so as to pull the rope between the first fixed seat 151 and the second fixed seat 152 to a taut state, thereby ensuring that the picking device 3 can smoothly pick the mussels.

[0049] Referring to Figure 9 As shown: the bottom of the first conveying belt 11 is provided with a storage box 4 for storing the rope; the inside of the storage box 4 is provided with a friction seat 41, and the top end of the friction seat 41 is in friction with the outer circumferential wall of the locking ring 133.

[0050] When the rope with mussels moves under the first conveying belt 11 and above the picking device 3, the picking device 3 can pick the mussels on the rope cleanly. Then, under the continuous guidance of the first conveying belt 11, the cleaned rope starts to move towards the head end of the first conveying belt 11. In the process of moving, the rope will pass through the storage box 4 below the first conveying belt 11, and the locking ring 133 on the clamping assembly 13 will be in contact with the friction seat 41 inside the storage box 4. Then, under the continuous driving of the first conveying belt 11, the locking ring 133 moves on the friction seat 41, and since the top end of the locking ring 133 and the friction seat 41 are in friction with each other, the locking ring 133 will rotate in the process of moving, so that the two clamping claws 132 move away from each other. Then, under the influence of its own weight, the rope falls into the storage box 4, so that the rope does not need to be manually removed, thereby improving the work efficiency. The clamping assembly 13 with the clamping claws 132 moving away from each other continues to move towards the head end of the first conveying belt 11 until it moves to the head end of the first conveying belt 11 and is above the first conveying belt 11. Then, the worker can directly fix a new rope with mussels on the moving platform 12, so as to perform a new round of circulation, thereby quickly picking all the mussels on the ropes.
